blogging

I have blogged or journaled online for over ten years. Over ten years. I was thirteen when I started doing this ritual of which I am partaking now.  Blogging is one of those things that I've done for so long that I have great difficulty imagining not doing it.  I guess you could say it's part of my identity, or at very least a reflection of my identity.  My blog is public, exceedingly personal, and leaves me extremely vulnerable.

The question I've grappled with since coming of age is the vulnerability worth it?

I love Drupal, really I do... but I have to admit, there are certain features in which it lacks out of the box which are extremely useful to bloggers which after using WordPress for years, you sort of take for granted.

A good example of this is comment notification.

With WordPress, you receive email notification when you receive a comment or a comment is put into your moderation queue (though I've had trouble with the latter actually working), thus you don't miss things.
